SharedID and talkr.net ideas

Both, on SharedID [1] and talkr.net [2] have been quite some discussion over potential comment identification resp. authentication systems. The other day I reawakended my crosspost idea based on trust levels with FOAF [3]. SharedID has an interesting demo online, where \”a service magically\” retrieves your FOAF file to a give email address and finally completes a comment form with the appropriate user data [4].

What I would like here is a common service API to make that service compatible. Oh, no, I haven\’t forgotten about George [5] Orwell 😉
